IT CAN BE A LITTLE INTIMIDATING walking
into a church for the first time. Or maybe it's just been a long time (like 30 years ago when your mom dragged you to Sunday
School). A lot has changed since then. The songs are singable, the sermon understandable, and you don't need to come in a suit.
(By the way, we'd love to see you this Sunday.)

This
page may help shed some light on aspects of the 80-million
member worldwide Anglican Communion. We hope you'll find
the material here interesting, entertaining — even
challenging. After all, we hold that Jesus Christ came to
take away your sins, not your mind.

An Invitation to Prayer
'Lord teach us how to pray.' That request was put to Jesus by his own disciples - which should encourage us if we feel we don't know
how to pray. They needed help, and so do we, especially at troubled times such as these. But there isn't just one right way to pray
- what works well for one person may not for another.'

www.rejesus.co.uk
'A new place to explore the story of Jesus, pray, discuss, be entertained and discover how Jesus is understood, followed, interpreted
and worshipped is available on the internet. Rejesus.co.uk has been designed for people who are curious about Jesus or interested
in exploring faith (but who are not keen to attend a church or a course). It is a resource for churches and Christians to use in
their witness, contacts and publicity—using the Internet to connect people with issues of faith and spirituality.The site has
five main sections, designed to offer a variety of ways of exploring Jesus and Christian faith and life'.

The Book of Common PrayerThe Book of Common Prayer (BCP) is the primary prayer book used throughout the Anglican Communion. Rich with language and heritage,
the common prayer book is one of the things which bond Anglicans around the world. At the site linked above, you'll find a number of
editions used throughout the world, as well as some historical editions. At this Daily
Prayer site (also in Spanish) you can click on a calendar day and
get that day's morning and evening prayers. Some people like to fit in a brief prayer
service at midday, and you'll find that as well. The simple and haunting office of Compline has traditionally been the last
prayer before bed.

The Creeds
Anglicans have two main "creeds"--short statements of what we believe--the Nicene and Apostles Creeds.
At each service, we say the one or the other of the creeds together as confirmation of our common faith.

Search the BibleWho would have thought searching the Bible would be fun? Think of this link as a Bible Concordance on steroids. You pick which
text version you want, which words to search for, which books to search, even what language to speak to you in! A great tool for researchers.
(Also see the Biblical Study Resources section of Anglicans Online for links to searchable Bible
dictionaries and commentaries.)
